That's not really a good counterpoint if the non-insured prices are patently insane. How on Earth is it justifiable for insulin to cost 300 dollars? Here it seems to be around 20-40 euros before the deduction you will get from our national health bureau (which can vary from 0% to 100% depending on your diagnosis and the medication you need.)
On top of the national mandatory health insurance, there's also optional private health insurance and private hospitals and such, but even for those the prices are nowhere near the insane numbers I see whenever US healthcare is discussed, and I frankly can't understand how people aren't revolting over there.
Didn't look that closely; there seems to be variance depending on how large an individual dose is and how many doses are included. I suppose the "price of insulin" is ill-defined without mentioning the dosage.
